At Drone Site Surveys, we’re reshaping how the UK surveys its buildings by harnessing advanced drone technology to deliver accurate, digestible and safe inspections that were once reserved for top-tier surveyors. Whether you’re a facilities manager, housing association, landlord or building consultancy, our nationwide drone services offer accessible, scalable and budget-friendly insights, delivered through our intuitive online portal.
Built for Multisite Portfolios
Our services are designed for multisite building owners, facilities managers, surveying companies, housing associations, and landlords who need consistent, rapid and actionable data. From retail outlets to distribution centres, we work across the UK, offering fixed-rate inspections, even for national portfolios.
One of our major clients, a leading UK supermarket chain, trusts us to inspect the roofs of their stores, logistics hubs and office spaces. Thanks to our scalable model, we deliver multiple site inspections per day, reducing downtime, saving carbon, and dramatically cutting costs versus traditional methods.
Proactive Surveying – Not Just Reactive Repairs
Far too often, external envelope maintenance is approached reactively, when a leak or structural issue becomes urgent. Our proactive drone-based surveys provide regular, high-quality insights before problems become costly:
- Spot early signs of damage or weathering
- Identify water pooling or drainage issues
- Monitor roof condition over time
- Prevent downtime through early detection
- Reduce emergency call-outs and insurance claims
Routine aerial inspections support asset longevity, risk mitigation and budget forecasting, key concerns for building managers and portfolio owners alike.
Digestible Data – For Every Skill Level
We’ve broken away from overly technical reports. Every survey we produce is designed to be clear and easy to understand, regardless of your experience. You’ll receive:
- Overview and up-close imagery with colour-coded annotations
- Interactive 3D models built with photogrammetry or LiDAR, depending on your requirements
- Volume, area, angle and distance measurements are accessible directly through our custom online portal
- All reports are presented in a clean, logical format, perfect for decision-makers, not just technical teams
No Scaffolding, Delays and Guesswork.
Our drone roof inspections eliminate the need for scaffolding, MEWPs or roof access. We deliver high-resolution images and insights from a safe distance, meaning:
- No disruption to day-to-day operations
- No health & safety risk for personnel
- No delays due to access restrictions
- No unexpected hire or labour costs
And because our CAA-licensed and trained drone pilots are positioned strategically across the UK, we can deploy quickly and complete inspections efficiently, nationwide.
A Sustainable, Scalable Solution
By deploying drones rather than physical access equipment across multisite locations, we help reduce:
- Travel and setup time
- Scaffolding-related emissions
- On-site man hours
- Your carbon footprint per inspection
With bulk delivery discounts and high-frequency deployment options, our approach is perfect for national frameworks and long-term maintenance programmes.
